As mentioned yesterday, it appears that Charlotte Flair may soon be the next contender to Natalya’s Smackdown Women’s Championship. It has also been rumored that the Horsewomen vs. Horsewomen idea has likely been scrapped by Vince McMahon. However, they are not done working with Ronda Rousey by any means. Sportskeeda reports that the plan is for Charlotte to win the title and then have Ronda challenge for it at Wrestlemania. No word on when the buildup is going to begin, but it was also rumored that WWE is planning to have a women’s Royal Rumble match in January. If it is anything like the traditional Royal Rumble match, the company may put a surprise entrant or two into the match.
